Now (everyone)! knows everything.
Our ION Meters feature precise monitoring and control, with direct Ethernet and Internet communications. This provides everyone in your business with immediate access to critical information.
They offer a comprehensive range of functions, including:
Revenue-Accurate Power, Energy, and Demand Values:
- Voltage: per-phase, average, unbalance
- Power: real, reactive, apparent, power factor, frequency
- Energy: bi-directional, total, import, export, net
- Demand: predicted, thermal, block, rolling block
- Highest accuracy standards
- Meets revenue billing standards including ANSI and IEC class 0.2
- On-board transformer and line loss compensation calculations
- Wide dynamic range for generator full load and station service
- Time-of-use schedules and downloadable tariffs
Communications & Integration with Existing Systems:
- Built-in Ethernet ports on meters
- Built-in modem links on meters
- RS-232/485 ports on meters
- Modbus, DNP, MV-90 support
- Analog I/O and digital I/O for transducer inputs, equipment status, and pulse counting
- MeterM@il and WebMeter for direct web connectivity
Data Logging:
- Triggered by setpoint, schedule, or signal
- Minimum/maximum logs for any parameter
- Time-stamps to 1 ms resolution
- GPS time synchronization
- On-board data storage in case of power failure
Automated Alarming & Control:
